That’s exactly what it is. Disgusting pukes. First Green Bay, now the Falcons... I expect we’ll see them all in UNITY on this crap.

It wasn’t until today that I realize this is about a liberal takeover of the NFL. Just like they’ve done with every other organization they are driving out the conservatives and they are taking it over for their crazy agenda. This crap should just stop they shouldn’t be doing anything.

They should all put on pussy hats and stand there with locked arms to show the world what they really are. Just a bunch of thug pussies.

How about standing with your hat off and your right hand over your heart? That’s how I was taught to show unity.

They are right this is such a racist unequal country I hope they are holding arms calling for an end to affirmative action, welfare, and public housing.

Great. Now there will be fights in the stands between those who want to "link" and those who don't.

Did the Falcons management even think about this before announcing this stupid stunt? Maybe there is something to the brain damage allegations. The entire NFL seems stuck on stupid.

I have not been to an NFL game in years, but I would never go there now. It's going to be dangerous. NFL could have liability for the injuries that are going to be caused by all this stupidity.

“Now they want the fans to link arms? Why? The fans are paying to see a football game, not a political rally, and not to join in making stupid, meaningless gestures.”

The kneelers also lock arms.

Win-win for Big Media/Football and their racist political agenda.

“Solidarity” or something, too.

the team will lock arms during the national anthem and will encourage the fans to do the same

Soon the only people at football games will be sycophants who will be happy to follow their lead.
People of principle (kind of like "people of color" except principle isn't an accident of birth, it's a decision) will have already left.

Then these losers will say, "Look! Everybody agrees with us!"

I confess that I’ve forgotten WHY they are doing this. What are they protesting again?
